I hope there are updated versions that make it more user friendly.Leighann of Multi-Minding Momhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01887411464033643026noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9076190155284676524.post-69610607065827451072009-12-02T07:30:01.896-05:002009-12-02T07:30:01.896-05:00Ah software, it's good to now that people are ...Ah software, it's good to now that people are still producing software with lousy interfaces.

My current app of choice is The Daily Plate. They've recently come up with an iPhone app for it, but I can access the Web 2.0 version through my normal cellphone-with-browser. Scrolling through a Web page on a normal cellphone is a pain in the [expletive deleted], worse, looking for which of the 200 entries for your generic food was correctly input and has the serving size listed in the units of your choice. (Note most apps don't convert package-serving-size or standard-serving-size into weight and/or volume, and "bell pepper, green, raw, 1 medium" can be anything from 57 g (per some apps) to 120 g (what mine usually weigh)...)<br /><br />Not sure what would be a good method without bogging down the works trying to get a single set of information...tmananoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9076190155284676524.post-61587308580879548222009-11-28T20:19:09.436-05:002009-11-28T20:19:09.436-05:00I'm right there with you on this - in fact the...I'm right there with you on this - in fact the day I added the app to my iPhone I tweeted with someone from GoMeals. Did you do a simple search of "skim milk"? Ridiculous what it came up with. The rep from GM told me they are working on making the database more intutitive. Then when I tried to locate a cup of coffee nearby (restaurant) - it found a Dunkin' Donuts more than 4 miles from my house. There are at least 2 within 2.5 miles and 2 Starbucks within the same distance. The rep told me they will be adding more restaurants to the data base soon. I then tweeted to ask how to add a food to the data base. Then I tweeted to find out how to remove food from the plate. I did not RTFM, but IMHO an app such as this should be very user friendly and not require any reading. I suggested they look at LoseIt - a free app.Unknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10539813071708543339noreply@blogger.com
